WAIALEA BAY~Steps to the sandy beach~Ocean views~

Our stay here was nothing less than 100% fabulous. It started out amazing before we even got there when our host noticed our late arrival time and offered to have groceries delivered for us to have a late-night snack and breakfast foods available. Then it only got better with cold peppermint scented towels waiting for us to wash off our travels and have a great night sleep in the comfortable beds. My boys and I didn't want to leave - the proximity to the beach, the beach toys & amenities, the cleanliness, the ease of location to other fun adventure spots, the privacy, the awesome outdoor shower - the list goes on and on. Thank you so much for the most excellent stay!

Wonderful place for single person or couple. Extremely well-stocked and very clean. Everything works and is in good shape. Only steps from one of the best beaches on the island. Lots of shade and sun so take your pick or move between the two. Even though no a/c there was always a nice breeze so not a big deal. Excellent company to deal with --very helpful, welcoming and always reachable. Late checkout was no problem if there are no parties coming in same day. Very close to some excellent restaurants.

We thoroughly enjoyed out stay at Ehu Kai. It was recommended to us by a very good friend who had stayed there. It is a very comfortable small house with a nice covered porch from which you can see the ocean through the trees. It is a very short walk down a pretty path to a lovely beach with lots of shade and good snorkling. It is also on a hiking trail that runs along the coast and allows you to walk north to Hapuna beach and south to Puako Bay. It is very quiet and private. If you want to get away from civilization to read, relax, swim, hike this place is a great choice. If you want air conditioning, a big screen tv, nearby restaurants and shopping you would likely not be happy here. It was just what we were looking for and we loved our stay. We loved the outdoor hot shower and the grills, both charcoal and gas. The kitchen is adequate for meal preparation----we prepared and ate all our meals at the house for the week. This place is not fancy, but very comfortable. The property managers are very nice and helpful and also rent kayaks, surfboards, stand-up paddle boards and bikes which they will deliver to the house. There are beach chairs and mats, boogie boards and some snorkling gear at the house. We would definitely come back again and would recommend it to family and friends.

The house is well equipped for cooking and enjoying the beach, which is a 2-minute walk from the back yard. The house is located in an area that has limited development. Hence, there are less cars and people here than other locations in this part of the island.

The house lacks air conditioning and can get warm on hot days when the wind is not blowing. However, the house is shaded by trees, the wind usually blows, there are many windows to open, and there are ceiling and floor fans to enhance the breeze.

The beach sand and water were very clean. Week days the beach had few people but it wasn't crowded on the weekend. There are trees on the beach so you can move between shade, full sun, and dappled sunlight. There were some folding beach chairs at the house we conveniently used every day.

The Wi-Fi worked well.

This house is mere steps away from the best beach on the island, maybe in all of Hawaii. Our third time staying here, can't wait to get back. The BBQ is a huge bonus, we were able to cook up some tasty dinners and enjoy the sunsets from the front deck.

I am hesitant to give Ehu Kai an excellent review because I don't want the secret to get out and make it more difficult for me to reserve again. ;-)
